Pet care experience

Wealth of experience in animal care

With 21 years of military service, I bring a unique blend of commitment, discipline, and attention to detail to every aspect of my life. I grew up as part of the Future Farmers of America (FFA), where I gained extensive hands-on experience in raising pets. This foundation in animal care has shaped my practical approach to dog and cat husbandry. Currently, I maintain a diverse array of animals, including a black lab that I personally trained for duck hunting, a cat I’ve leash-trained to go on walks, a turtle, and a small-scale quail farm. My experience has taught me the importance of precision and organization, which I apply to managing my pets, ensuring everything is in top shape and that the animals receive the best care possible.

Ryan is a dedicated, driven and hardworking. He is caring to any and all animal and he does above and beyond to make sure their needs are met. He is great with time management and is going to fulfill any tasks to the fullest. He is willing to learn all about the animals he takes care of and I am confident in his pet taking abilities.

Ryan’s love for animals is evident. He has watched our Labrador (Luna) many times. We never hesitate sending her with him. He is very attentive to Luna and doesn’t hesitate to call if he thinks anything is possible wrong with her. Ryan is our first call ever time we need a dog sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat our pets like family. Without children of our own, our 'fur babies' are everything to us. I care for every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the same love, attention, and care that I give to my own pets.

A typical day

I’am constantly outside tending to our quail, garden and our dog plays fetch nonstop. So entertaining won’t be an issue for me. And of course, hanging out on the couch.

I’am always outside, tending to our quail, garden, and playing fetch with my dog—so keeping your pet entertained is never a problem. And, of course, I’am always happy to relax and hang out on the couch when it's time to wind down.
